Husband, Spend Some Gold Coins - Chapter 81

Li Siwen was shocked, stunned, and incredulous, but she did not stop moving her hands and said firmly, [As far as I knew, this is just another job for you right? It wasn’t a big deal for you, right? You must have misunderstood, my good brother.]

Xie Qi responded with silence.

If Li Siwen had stood up and agreed as before, Xie Qi might have subconsciously refuted it, but Li Siwen had changed her tone. The more she insisted it was a misunderstanding, the more Xie Qi felt compelled to prove that it wasn’t, so he said, [If he didn’t like me, how could he have spent so much money on me? He also built a library. This is outrageous.]

Li Siwen replied, [This doesn’t seem to be anything. The husband can give you 600,000 yuan a month, so why would he still care about this little money?]

Xie Qi fell silent.

This was true.

Xie Qi felt vaguely convinced, and his tone became much more relaxed. [Didn’t you say he was interested in me before? Why did your attitude change so quickly now?]

Li Siwen responded humbly, [You also knew what virtue I had. A slim cat could press the other fat cat on the ground, and I could make up the beauty attack on the strong. Do you believe me?]

Xie Qi remained silent.

He replied, [Analysing rationally, do you really think he is not interested in me? He is so kind to me that it is ridiculous. Even a friend cannot do this, right?]

Li Siwen argued, [Why can’t a friend do it? Don’t you know that I was so worried about you that I stayed up all night making hundreds of bracelets? That’s what friends do. When a friend is in trouble, they draw their sword to help and go through fire and water without hesitation.]

Xie Qi was contemplative.

This was indeed the case.

Xie Qi transferred 5,000 yuan to Li Siwen and said, [As long as you are rich and noble, don’t forget each other. Collect it quickly. I won’t forget you even when I have money.]

The amount felt substantial, and Li Siwen immediately felt a little embarrassed. She hesitated, unsure whether to say anything, but Xie Qi continued, [Maybe I’m overthinking it, because I can’t think of any other relationship that could allow this behaviour. If he does this in such a daze, it might just be that he is doing charity and taking care of me.]

Li Siwen thought to herself, No… no!!!

Li Siwen’s conscience ached a little, and when she was about to say something, Xie Qi said again, [I’m in class; let’s talk later.]

In the end, Li Siwen said nothing.

‘It’s over,’ Li Siwen thought. It’s all over. Could it be far behind? It seemed like it was all in vain, but she still said, [He might really be interested in you; why don’t you test it out?]

After class time passed, Li Siwen received the message: [Don’t agree with me because of money. We are friends, right? Hurry up and collect the money. I don’t care about this little money. My good friend, there is a lot in my hand. Any allowances are enough for me to send you red envelopes for a hundred years.]

Li Siwen remained silent.

Xie Qi didn’t truly believe he was overthinking it, as he had told Li Siwen. In fact, he became more concerned about the matter.

When school was about to end in the afternoon, Xie Qi received a message from Qin Yizhi. He was going to attend a banquet in the evening and needed to go with him.

Xie Qi adapted well and responded as soon as he saw it.

He thought of something and said somewhat deliberately, [When I was in computer class today, there was a girl who was probably 185 cm tall—tall, fair, and good-looking.]

Qin Yizhi did not reply immediately. After a while, he replied, [Take care of your eyes. This is mental cheating.]

Xie Qi responded, […I just took a look, but I really think she might be the most beautiful girl I have ever seen in my life.]

There was no expression on his face as he typed those words, but he didn’t lie. There was indeed a very beautiful girl in the computer class. She was very tall, a little taller than him, had a good figure—not slender, but she seemed to have a stronger frame than him.

But he had just taken a casual look, and now he was merely testing Qin Yizhi with this female classmate.

However, Xie Qi didn’t know if he had tested it out successfully.

He was still quite unskilled in this matter.

Qin Yizhi didn’t reply to him.

Xie Qi typed a few more unconscious messages to urge him, and only then did Qin Yizhi respond calmly, [Come out right after school.]

Xie Qi looked at these words and it felt a little angry, so he didn’t dare to say anything more.

After class, he picked up his schoolbag and walked out. He hurried along, and many people stared at him as he walked away.

What Xie Qi didn’t know was that he was actually quite famous in school. The first reason was that he was very beautiful, tall, not effeminate, and a very fresh and clean boy.

The second reason was that on the night of registration, he walked around the school hand in hand with a handsome guy and left his name on the forum. Recently, he had become a bit popular. Some people took screenshots and posted them on Weibo. As a result, as soon as they forwarded the comments, they were deleted.

Even if a picture posted by a netizen was deleted, it could not be displayed. There were some random speculations.

But when everyone looked at the gossip, the owner didn’t seem to know what to do. Because of this, Xie Qi had a bit of lore about him.

Xie Qi himself didn’t socialize with others, and his isolation from the world made people even more curious.

However, Xie Qi didn’t know anything about this. When he left the school, he saw a Rolls-Royce. The back seat window was slightly opened, revealing Qin Yizhi’s face.

Xie Qi quickened his pace, walked to the other side, opened the car door, and got in.

Qin Yizhi glanced at the backpack he had thrown in, reached out to grab it, carried it to him, unzipped the backpack, and took a look.

Xie Qi didn’t take it seriously when he saw it: “What’s there to see? They’re all books.”

Qin Yizhi said “hmm” and put his schoolbag aside.

After waiting for the car to drive out for a while, Xie Qi realized belatedly, “You don’t think there is a love letter in your backpack, do you?”

Qin Yizhi: “…”

Qin Yizhi said lightly: “Yes.”

Xie Qi: “…Hahaha, you think too much.”
